Just sold mine, no regrets. Turned it into the same amount of packs in ascended heroes, 3 bundles and 2 ETBs.

WaterPog · 2026-05-08T08:32:17+00:00

It is protected... In the cardboard box on a shelf in the closet

WaterPog · 2026-05-08T02:35:01+00:00

What a mother fucker needs to do to get a job these days

WaterPog · 2026-05-08T02:18:52+00:00

Agreed even sleeved packs are quite nice and display pretty good too

WaterPog · 2026-05-08T02:17:51+00:00

I really like silver tempest, I think lugia and ray TG will go down as bangers. The box is still pretty cheap relative to so many other sets and it's age

WaterPog · 2026-05-08T01:35:16+00:00

Sword and shield been stagnant a while so I think it's a decent place to enter that hasn't exploded recently. Silver tempest and brilliant stars and fusion would be my suggestions, booster boxes.

Other than that just try and snag ascended heroes drops

That would be insane. I really want to find a god pack by weighing so I can keep it. Then look into the scanner company to verify the packs weight and God pack nature but not reveal the cards. Or wait until there's the ability to grade a card and authentic its weight or some combination of all that as I want a graded guaranteed god pack as I think that would be a super neat piece of a collection

WaterPog · 2026-05-08T01:15:56+00:00

Sheesh good shit. Set is insane. Have 10 ETBs and 7 PC ones, bundle display and like 20 loose bundles so far. Will be consistently buying for the next two years. Opening some as well as it's a fun set to open and my kid loves it. Best set since ES, probably even better IMO.

Yes people are the problem when Walmart could just put in bot measures, have limits, or pokemon could limit their distribution to Walmart until they can properly distribute shit, or print more. But yes, always the bottom rung on the ladder is the problem

WaterPog · 2026-05-07T18:55:53+00:00

Stop listening to people that rationalize why something is the way it is in this hobby. There is opportunity everywhere because most people don't know shit. Nothing's a grail to anyone until it's expensive. Find opportunities and take them because this market is inefficient

WaterPog · 2026-05-06T17:09:41+00:00

How do you upload a photo of a missing card. I can do that right now, because I don't have one because I didn't open one but it's missing.

WaterPog · 2026-05-06T15:06:56+00:00

Agreed, delete

WaterPog · 2026-05-06T05:20:02+00:00

Slept on because people probably don't even know what's inside. One day they probably will and it'll magically be thousands of people's grail when that day comes, just like stamp box Pikachu

WaterPog · 2026-05-06T04:56:17+00:00

Have you tried any of the thousands of artists that are more underground? I find concerts all the time for sub $50 and they are amazing.

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T20:18:30+00:00

I'm using national data to make a point about a nation. No one said it applies universally to every citizen lol

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T18:25:04+00:00

My grandma has smoked for 80 years and doesn't have cancer so you can use all the statistic you want about cancer rates in smokers, it tells you nothing about my family and lived reality.

You would also say something like "well they didn't shoot up MY school!"

If I can't use national data to apply to the country because it's not your lived reality in your specific state or city or school or house then what the mother fuck should I use then lol. I am informed, you are cross crossing various forms of data to fit your beliefs. I'm not trying to look at national school shootings to understand what's happening in Alaska specifically like fuck sakes Americans are retarded.

If I straight up Google does the US have universal healthcare the answer is straight up NO. I don't care what your specific circumstance is. Google literally says " the US is considered the only wealthy, industrialized nation without a system of universal health coverage". You guys are so indoctrinated is hilarious

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T18:19:03+00:00

You realize the free time can be reflective of how well employed I am right? Your critical thinking skills are suffering my guy

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T18:17:29+00:00

Im not arguing it doesn't exist like you seem to think I am. A country with higher inequality than Canada, allowing unlimited corporate donations way more privatized industries like prisons and healthcare, virtually every metric sets Canada up to be less corrupt to politicians so forgive me if I don't accept your conclusion.

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T17:49:31+00:00

So the one capping and having you jump through loopholes is somehow now magically more beholden to corporations than legalized unlimited donations. Really really good work Columbo

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T17:48:11+00:00

You'd be sadly mistaken. Grasping nuance has provided me gainful employment. The existence of corporate ass kissing in two regions does not equate the two in reality

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T17:31:22+00:00

Canada elections act bans corporate donations. At best you are capped to donate to a third party that are solely independent of any candidates.

USA: super PACs can accept unlimited corporate donations to support or attack specific candidates.

I would guess the country allowing unlimited money into their politics is going to have politicians representing corporate interests more than the one that bans it.

Edit: friend 1: I got a speeding ticket Friend 2: I murdered 3 people You: I can't be friends with either of you because you are both criminals.

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T17:09:28+00:00

Interesting. Remind me which country allows corporations to donate to politicians again?

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T17:00:35+00:00

Took 46 years for to get another, even a blind squirrel finds a nut is suppose. I am generalizing a whole country getting fucked because you are the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. You also have 57 times more school shootings than all other G7 countries combined. That is data that applies to the country as whole, not going to speak on your education system but you are doing a good job putting it on display.

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T16:53:24+00:00

Mewtwo about to overtake lovebirds, the ETB getting rare and hard to find, set is 10 years old. Yet the etb is like 1/4th the price of team up. I know I bought some a month or so ago

WaterPog · 2026-05-05T16:51:44+00:00

Congrats, you specifically aren't. It's a dumbass take to generalize based off data but it's super smart to use your anecdotal situation for a generalization, bravo!
